    Default Who uses a single vertical pin slider site?

    For the last few years I have been using the Vital Bow Gear's Star Track adjustable site simply because I can't shoot horizontal pins worth beans and because I like the site picture with only one pin. Recently I have been looking at the new HHA's that have micro adjust for the single vertical pin. Any of y'all have an HHA and how do you like it. Anyone else use vertical pins?

    I recently put a cobra slider on, but have been using a 7 pin hoggit for years, not sure which will stick.

    I started with an hha ol-5000, decided I would give the star track a try and after about a week I went back to my hha. I now have the micro adjust, and will not be switching. In my opinion they are built 10 times more solid than the vbg. The pin is very bright, the slider is silky smooth, and the micro adjust is soooo nice!

    I have 2 HHA's, I bought a new XL5519 (.019) pin with the 2" housing that I used hunting this year. I wouldn't go back to a multi-pin sight for anything now! I love the fact that there is no confusion on which pin to pick. For deer hunting I set it at 25yds and leave it. I also bought a used (great condition) TX5519 (.019) pin with the 2" housing. It is essentially the same sight as my new one, only a year older with the addition of having micro-elevation. Both sights have the adjustable rheostat (to adjust pin brightness) which is really awesome! The TX5519 just sit's on my old bow, which I rarely shoot now that I can't seem to put my Synergy down! I'm thinking of possibly selling or trading the TX5519, I don't really see myself using the micro-elevation feature.
    Chuck Norris and Mr. T walked into a bar. The bar was instantly destroyed, as that level of awesome cannot be contained in one building.

    I have an impact Archery 1 pin slider. It is well built - more than my Viper 4 pin Slider. i wish the pin was a size smaller eventhough it is bright and easy to see.

    I use a Cosmic Impact slider fitted with a classic scope houseing for hunting.I shoot 3-d with a scope so much that I dont feel right if I'm not looking at one pin.I chose the Impact for its compact size.I like to keep everyting compact for hunting.

    I purchased a King Cobra 1 slider and am pretty happy with it so far. Overall it is a well built site and plenty bright for my needs. I couldn't find an HHA locally to play with, and the Cobra was a bit cheaper in price.

    I definately notice the difference in the stand without multiple pins cluttering the picture. I just set it to the most likely distance for that stand. My Envy is so fast there's not a heck of alot of variation at treestand distances anyway.
